This isn't affiliated with the Chuseok Festival that the KPop groups are going to. It might actually conflict with it :/
Kimuuu and I are going to try to hit up both though XD

I am seriously looking into airfare/busfare/hotels now and trying to come up with a number as to how much this would cost.

After Sakura Con I vowed that next time Rika was in the US I'd go, so I'm crossing my fingers and hoping that I can actually do it.

If I can actually find a bunch of people to split a hotel room with (THAT'S the expensive bit) I found airfare from where I live to NYC roundtrip for $300.

Last time Kim and I went to NYC, we drove, got a hotel in Jersey and would go to Staten Island and catch the ferry over. It's quite an ordeal, though, so I dunno if we'd do the same again or not. It's much cheaper (ferry is free and parking is like $7 for the day), but it takes foleba...

I vote we all pile up in a hotel room. I'll bring my earplugs. XD
